This or That?

This week’s episode is basically chaos in its purest form… We're playing This or That?

We’re asking the hard-hitting questions like:

• Burgers or pizza?
• Sunrise or sunset?
• Call or text...or voice note?? (boy, was this one fun)

It’s a full-on sibling showdown where opinions get loud, alliances get questionable, and absolutely no one is safe from judgment. 

BUT WAIT, there’s more. We also take a nostalgic deep dive into the iconic, slightly unhinged world of middle school Slam Books… you know, the notebooks where secrets were spilled, crushes were exposed, and friendships were… tested 

Expect lots of laughs, a little roasting, and a whole lot of “but why did you bully me as a child?”

Tune in if you’re ready to pick sides and relive the most chaotic era of your life

Transcript

SPEAKER_02 0:06

Hey nerds, I'm Kim, your favorite millennial, fueled by memes, an existential dread, with a brain full of movie quotes and irrelevant trivia. And I'm Pam, Generation X.

SPEAKER_00 0:18

Fluent in sarcasm and intrusive thoughts, and old enough to remember when video killed the radio star.

SPEAKER_02 0:25

And together we're hysterical. Two sisters with zero chill, wildly different takes, and an alarming amount of useless knowledge. So if any of that tickles your fancy, welcome.

SPEAKER_00 0:35

You're our kind of people. Maybe I wanted to leave people in suspense. Maybe. Let me be. Oh gosh. Okay, okay. Three, two, one. Hey weirdos. Welcome back to Sisterical.

SPEAKER_02 1:14

This is Pam. And this is Kim. And we are on episode 12.

SPEAKER_00 1:19

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve. Okay, sorry. Tell everybody what the episode is about.

SPEAKER_02 1:32

Um today's episode is um well, so we're gonna play a little game called This or That. At least that's what we've called it. And basically we're just gonna throw a couple options at each other and see what the preference is. It's such an original game. But it is fun to learn about each other.

SPEAKER_00 1:55

I used to do this all the time on Instagram. I used to do all those little posters that people would post up and say this or that, and you know, coffee or tea, mountains or beach, and all the other stuff. And it was like a real big thing. Do you remember when it was a real big thing?

SPEAKER_02 2:11

Um yeah, I remember when it was a real big thing. I remember when I was a real big thing in middle school and high school, I think mostly middle school. Um, once I got to high school, it was like too cool. We were too cool to do that. But in middle school, we had slam books. What? Okay.

SPEAKER_00 2:33

Yeah. I wish I still had my slam book. Oh my gosh. I sure I have.

SPEAKER_02 2:38

You owned a slam book? Yes. Honestly, I might have also, but I don't ever remember starting a slam book.

SPEAKER_00 2:45

It was, I remember, I god. It had Alf on the cover, and it was a spiral notebook, and it was crunchy. Like it was so passed around that it barely the pages wouldn't turn. It was just it was so overused. They were the best. Mine probably was a little different than yours. Mine was yeah, what was yours? Clean. Like, you know, I always said, like, you know, who's your favorite actor, who's your favorite singer, or who's your favorite band?

SPEAKER_02 3:21

Wait, wait, wait, wait. You need to like explain what a slam book is.

SPEAKER_00 3:25

Oh, yes. So, because maybe some of our listeners are little Gen Zers and they're like, What? They'll they'll they'll make a comeback for sure. Let's hope so. I I'm sure that they will completely turn it around, just like everything else has. They'll make it an app. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 3:43

That's so true.

SPEAKER_00 3:45

Oh my gosh. Okay, so slam books were handmade uh books or like journal type booklets or whatever. And the first page you sign in. You have to sign in. That was the sign-in sheet. You had to do it. And the numbers on the left of the page went all the way down to however many lines there were, and you had to put your name and you could skip. You did not have to be in consecutive order. And then on the next page was a question. How old are you? And then you would have to sign next to that number, your designated number. And then the next pages they would say something like, Where were you born? And have you ever been to a concert? What is your big celebration crash? Yeah, yeah, but it didn't get there yet. Oh, sorry. Stay safe. They were like on the shore. Gotcha. Yeah. And then they started getting their feet wet with like, What do you think of me? Now I'm gonna say that mine did say that. Mine said, Yes. Mine said, What do you think of Pam? Oh my goodness. The funny thing is, like nobody was harsh. And everybody said such nice things. And I remember somebody said I was funny and I never forgot that. I don't know who it was, but and then when somebody said she's cute, somebody said she's pretty. You know, it was like, of course, all girls saying this stuff. Yeah, of course. It just did a lot for my ego. And then this is middle school, you needed it everywhere you could get it. Of course. So then after you got your feet wet, you went into the deep end a little bit, and you started to talk about who your crush was. And um beyond that, I don't really recall that I got beyond that on mine, but I don't think I would have. But um, I was very much a goody-goody and would never would just would never yeah, no, that tracks.

SPEAKER_02 5:52

And um, me being the youngest of three, I think I got a little more bold on mine, but I don't remember it being like too nefarious. Like I was still very, for lack of a better term, virginal. So I didn't like know a lot of things. So it was, it was, I don't know. But I do remember a lot of like what what do you want to be when you grow up? Because again, we were still in middle school. Um, and like um celebrity crushes and dream car and stuff like that. And but I also did a lot of this or that type questions. It was so much fun to see who wrote what and to see who was crushing on who, and to see who wanted to be um an astronaut. But it was it was really so like juicy to see like what everyone would say, but you would have to like flip to the first page to see who signed in because that was the only place where they put their name, and then you had to match the handwriting to the uh to all the answers. It was a lot of fun.

SPEAKER_00 7:08

What's funny about slam books is the name sounds so much more um dirty than it really could be. If you think about it, I mean, I think it would be so cool to pass around a slam book at a workplace so you learn more about each other. I mean, I I just think that would be so fun. So, like if you have a tight-knit work relationship, when it came time for their birthday, you knew what they liked. You could relate with other people. What if this person likes the same band as you? You could have something to talk about in the break room. I mean, I like that a lot. I think that's a fun idea if you can keep it, you know, super innocent and fun and playful. I mean, there's so many age ranges in lots lots of different workplaces. So it's like why are we limiting it to middle school?

SPEAKER_02 8:05

So I completely agree. I also read, and I should have done more research on this, but I read that slam books started a long time ago, like in the early 1900s. And uh, and they were meant to be uh hence the name, they were meant to be like a very negative thing. There's a whole Wikipedia page about slam books, so wow. All right, so we're gonna get into our this or that game. Um, and I am ready. Are you ready? I got some red ones here.

SPEAKER_00 8:39

Do people know? Do like the different generations probably translate it a different way. I don't know. Like do the youngins know? I know young'uns may not listen to us, but this or that is that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 8:53

Okay, go ahead if you wanna.

SPEAKER_00 8:55

Well, no, it's basically, I mean, like it sounds. Um, it's basically like to give an example, and I think that um this may be one that would be kind of very, very silly, but Superman or Batman, and then you would basically kind of give context as to what your answer would be and blah blah blah.

SPEAKER_02 9:18

And we're so we're just gonna go back and forth asking each other to pick from two options.

SPEAKER_00 9:24

Right. And I have some and you have some. The cool thing about it is you'll stump me probably on some and vice versa, whereas I've already got my answer for what I have. So that'll be interesting.

SPEAKER_02 9:39

That will be interesting. Also, I was going through a list of examples um because I couldn't think of many on my own, which is so annoying. But there were so many where I was like, I already know what she's gonna pick from. Like, I don't want to ask her that. That's boring. Like, I I know the audience might not know what you're gonna pick.

SPEAKER_00 10:00

That's but that's I think the core part of why we're doing this, I think, is to let them know.

SPEAKER_02 10:08

But I wanted it to be fun for me and them, not just them, because I'm a little selfish. That's fair. You were gonna say true. That's true.

SPEAKER_00 10:22

So true.

SPEAKER_02 10:24

Uh okay, fine. I mean, I admitted it first. So I'm so humble, you guys. Right?

SPEAKER_00 10:33

That's also fair.

SPEAKER_02 10:35

Yeah. Um, okay, so do you want to throw out the first one? And we're gonna start with like simpler ones, right?

SPEAKER_00 10:43

Yes, I was just gonna say that. We're gonna start simple, kind of kind of lame, um, a couple maybe. Um, but at the same time, I think yielding one of the answers over the other, it really does kind of create a lot of conversation, create a lot of controversy, maybe. Um, but that's the beauty of this game. So, but yes, the even the mild ones might, you know, spark something and um hopefully be inspiration for anybody who wants to play this with their friends. So for sure. Yeah, or sisters. But uh okay, so the very first one, I'll just tell you the very first one I wrote down. And side note, I also got help because you know, you can think of something here and there, but to sit there and have to focus on a list, it's you know, you get stomped easy, even the creatives. So I um I will give you the first one I have. Now, these are best or worst case scenario answers that you would have to give. Okay, so if you had to choose between pizza or burgers for the rest of your life. Oh, that is so tough.

SPEAKER_02 11:57

Um I'm so tough, apparently. So tough. So here's what I okay. You know what? No, I'm not even gonna go with my like issues that I have with beef. I love cheeseburgers. That's my all-time favorite food. So I will eat cheeseburgers for the rest of my life, even if my body doesn't agree with it.

SPEAKER_00 12:16

That's hey, that's that's pretty much how I would have looked at it, too. Yeah, you can't. I love pizza, but I'll be honest, I'm more I'm usually in the mood for a burger over pizza. And I do love a good pizza. But pizza's a meat. You can't, yeah, you can't extend your life and think about how often you would have pizza. But a burger can be made so many different ways. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 12:43

No, I would just eat it the same way every time. But I get what you're saying.

SPEAKER_00 12:48

If I remember correctly, when you were a kid, you used to always order you would say cheeseburger with ketchup only.

SPEAKER_01 12:55

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 12:55

Ketchup only lives rent-free in my head. When I think about you ordering McDonald's.

SPEAKER_02 13:02

Yeah, because that otherwise I'd have to say no mustard, no onions, no. Yeah. And I know our listeners right now are like, are you kidding me? I do not do things. Well, uh, first of all, I don't really order burgers much anymore. But uh yeah, for the most part, I pretty much only get cheese and ketchup. I do like lettuce, not a tomato fan. Um and then occasionally I'll get like if there's a special sauce or a burger sauce, I will absolutely always get that over ketchup.

SPEAKER_00 13:33

Yes. Um also on the side for me. If it if there is any kind of sauce, if I say so, if I don't say light sauce, they will drown my burger in sauce. But I like to say sauce on the side. Now, if we're talking like fast food, that's different because they usually have little packets anyway. But if you're talking like a restaurant, yes, absolutely on the side. I want to be in control of my burger. Okay. Our episodes could really have a lot of like topics that we never think are gonna be a topic, but pizza or burgers could absolutely be an entire episode. Yeah, it could.

SPEAKER_02 14:13

You started out with a banger, man.

SPEAKER_00 14:15

I know.

SPEAKER_02 14:16

Okay, so my I'm gonna do my first one of so now that both so both of us are from Florida, as most people should know by now, but now we both live in different states that have a winter and a summer. So my question is do you prefer winter or summer?

SPEAKER_00 14:35

I have lived in Florida all my life until five years ago, and I absolutely figured out that I am not a true Floridian. I hate the summers. We do indeed get four seasons.

SPEAKER_02 14:53

And um and for context, yeah, you're in Georgia, I'm in Oregon. Yes, yes, North Georgia too. So it's it's obviously a little colder, but not by much. I think I have the same answer. So, well, uh anyone that knows me, it's no secret. I hate being hot. I get so cranky, I cannot believe I lived in Florida as long as I did with that humidity. Now, the summers in Oregon are gorgeous. It's it's it gets up to like, well, sometimes it does get up to 100 degrees, but 100 degrees in Oregon is a million times better than 80 degrees in Florida. All right, moving on.

SPEAKER_00 15:32

Okay, a lot of these I wrote down. I did not know what you would say because sometimes you surprise me. Um, video games or board games. That's tough, dude. I know. Um, I will say it's probably more tough for you because your generation embraced both, honestly. Yes. I think that uh I love how we're answering, like our life depends on it.

SPEAKER_02 15:59

It's so intense. Um I think I'm gonna say board games. Um that's the answer. I figured. Yeah. I love video games, especially Nintendo games. Like that is where my heart is. It's Nintendo all the way. But same, um, nothing beats like a physical game. And it's just, I don't know, it hits different. So I kind of like it. And it's better for your eyes instead of staring at your eyes.

SPEAKER_00 16:29

Yes, it is, it is. And if you think of long term, yes, I think that if if we ask any of these questions and we say, okay, for the rest of your life, it's either A or B, I do honestly think that if we chose to play video games for the rest of our lives, um, it's gonna be a short life.

SPEAKER_02 16:47

We're putting way too much thought into these answers. And I love it. And I'm Yeah, yeah. It's great, it's great, it's great.

SPEAKER_00 16:54

Okay, what's your next one?

SPEAKER_02 16:55

Okay, so my next one is do you prefer sunrise or sunset?

SPEAKER_00 17:02

Oh my gosh.

unknown 17:06

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 17:07

Okay, that's that's a really good one. I will be honest, I have experienced way more sunsets than sunrises because Oh, yeah, you're not a morning person.

unknown 17:20

No.

SPEAKER_00 17:21

But okay, I am gonna say if I were to prefer one over the other, I would love to experience a sunrise simply based on the peace that comes with it. I feel like that would bring such just a calm to experience a sunrise when it is so quiet that early in the morning.

SPEAKER_01 17:45

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 17:46

But a sunset doesn't really do that, it's really just signing off for the day.

SPEAKER_02 17:52

Right, right. Yeah. I agree, I like that. Um, okay, that's a great answer. So I have experienced both on both coasts. The sunrise is in the east, so I have seen the sunrise on a Florida beach, and it is very peaceful. It's so like majestic and calm and quiet, just like you were saying, and it's beautiful.

SPEAKER_00 18:17

And it's colorful.

SPEAKER_02 18:18

Yes. However, I have seen a sunset in Washington, Oregon, and California. And actually, when I was traveling in my van, and I will never forget this. When I was traveling in my van, I was in San Diego, and they have this location called the Sunset Cliffs. And basically, it's just these really high cliffs that are right on the beach, and you get you have to climb up this huge mountain, and then you sit on the edge of this cliff, and you just watch the sun set behind the water, and it is so powerful. And um, I really, really, really loved it. It's what I like about a sunset is that it's much more orange and dark, it's darker and it creates more bold colors than a sunrise does.

SPEAKER_00 19:10

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 19:10

And it was amazing. I will never forget that. So, and then even here in Oregon, I will go to my roof and watch the sunset, and it's gorgeous.

SPEAKER_00 19:19

So, would you say if you were to answer on each coast, your east coast is sunrise and your west coast is sunset? Correct. Okay. But if you had to choose one.

SPEAKER_02 19:32

Overall, it's a sunset, 100%.

SPEAKER_00 19:35

Okay. So you're embracing the west the west coast then.

SPEAKER_02 19:39

Yeah, but I think that sunsets in general, regardless of what coast I'm on. I don't know. They're just prettier for me.

SPEAKER_00 19:46

Okay. Yeah. That's a good answer. Okay. This is actually an ongoing thing. I ask a lot of people this because I feel like I don't understand one of the answers, and I don't understand why. I don't I don't understand why I get a lot of the other answer that I don't get. Anyway, French toast or pancakes. I'll tell you what the okay, go ahead and answer, and then I'll tell you what I was gonna say.

SPEAKER_02 20:15

100% French toast.

SPEAKER_00 20:16

Me too.

SPEAKER_02 20:18

But that's weird because normally it's pancakes or waffles. I don't think that French toast should be included.

SPEAKER_00 20:24

I under I agree with you, but I see those choices together a lot. Now, I can't put French toast and waffles together because they are they I love them both. So I I chose the pancakes one because pancakes are a different texture than French toast, but I do see that choice a lot. Weird, you know what I'm saying? But I I love my audience, but if you're a pancake connoisseur, like please explain to me the hype. I don't understand the fascination with pancakes. Fluffy or not, I just it's just not enough balance of texture. French toast is exactly that, it's a balance of texture.

SPEAKER_02 21:13

Does that make sense? Pancakes, kind of, but I love the pancakes. I don't like waffles because they hold too much syrup. And I it's I don't like it. I don't like those little pockets for syrup. However, I do like pancakes, so I kind of get the hype, but I am a French toast girl all the way.

SPEAKER_00 21:30

See, when it comes to syrup, I'm very uh syrup. Syrup. I say syrup. Oh, I say syrup. I feel we're not born in the same stage.

SPEAKER_02 21:40

What do the elicitors say? We should post a story.

SPEAKER_00 21:44

I know I'm gonna totally do that. Is it syrup or syrup? Yeah. Um with syrup. Um syrup. I I don't use a lot. I think it is way Eat too sweet. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 22:01

I'm very light with syrup. I do not drizzle or pour syrup. I have to dip so I can control the amount.

SPEAKER_00 22:08

Yeah. Well, see, I don't I don't dip, but I get that. Like I totally get that. Me, I'm very like, I whip it back and forth and I'm done. I put the bottle away. I don't like too much. Oh, and you have to have with any of these choices, whether it's fresh toast, pancakes, or waffles. If you do not have it with powdered sugar, you're crazy. You have to have it with powdered sugar.

SPEAKER_02 22:31

I actually, you know what? Younger Kim would be all over that powdered sugar. Now I I don't need it. I just need it as a free and I am good. Yeah. Yeah. Um, this next one, I already know your answer and my answer, but I'm gonna ask it anyway. Um, would you prefer a phone call or a text?

SPEAKER_00 22:56

This is so controversial with me and Kim. Um okay. So bottom line, if I need something, gosh, this is crazy because it depends on who we're dealing with. Are you talking about with you?

SPEAKER_02 23:13

Yes, just like in general, not like if you have like a customer service inquiry.

SPEAKER_00 23:20

No, that's not. I'm absolutely gearing it to either you or if I were to deal with anybody else.

SPEAKER_03 23:31

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_02 23:33

So okay, okay. So you're saying that you text me because you know how I am, probably. But everyone else you'd rather call.

SPEAKER_00 23:41

Almost the other way around. Oh. So I would rather call you because texting, if I have to explain something, you really get me in like a phone call.

SPEAKER_01 23:53

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 23:53

Like we go back and forth. Like, let's just say you're talking me through something. If I've I've got an iPhone question, technology. So many iPhone questions. Yes, I know. And so that right there would be like, can I just call you? And I think, side note, I think it's hilarious we're at a time where we have to text someone to ask permission to call. I think that that is probably one of the most mind-blowing transitions into the 2020s. And I just think that's hilarious, but it is so accurate. Cold calling is just so passe, you know? So, but in saying that, I know that you prefer text, but sometimes I can't explain what I what it is I want to say. And so I'm like, can I just call you real quick, you know? And it's done.

SPEAKER_02 24:50

Okay. Well, that leads me into my into our next segment, which is called this or that or this other thing. Because my new favorite bonus category. My new favorite thing is voice notes. So yes, in between texting and calling. So I I obviously love texting, it's my favorite thing in the world. Phone calls gives me anxiety. Not okay. Yes, it's not just anxiety that they give me, and that depends on the situation. If I'm calling you, it doesn't give me anxiety. What gives me anxiety is that sometimes, depending on what the other person's phone is or what their carrier is or whatever the case, there's a delay, and I hate it so much. Like, I don't know, uh maybe it doesn't exist as much as it used to. I barely talk to people on the phone. However, um uh it gives me enough frustration to where, like, no, I don't want to deal with this. Also, when I'm texting, I have the option to think about my response, respond the way I need to respond, and give a full response instead of like if I'm on the phone, I don't think of everything as I'm speaking. And then I think of it later when I'm in the shower. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. It's just one of those things. So my new favorite thing are voice notes. It's so efficient. Like I can get so much stuff out, and you can respond whenever you want to respond. And I realize that like for a like a back and forth conversation with you is not super ideal. But you know what I mean? Like, if I have if I need your opinion on something, I'll send you a voice note where it's like, hey, blah, blah, blah. Or if I'm giving you and Michelle an update on my list. Yeah, I was just gonna say that. Yeah. So I'll give you like a 10-minute voice note of what's going on with me, and then like you guys can respond at your leisure. And I don't have to get on a phone call with you guys, and it which takes however long. We can all save our time. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 27:00

I like that pause, the gentle pause after you said that. Um, no, that's totally fair. And I I like I like that because I think actually more people maybe should do that. I do think it's funny because it kind of signifies that you like you don't like to be interrupted. Yeah. But but yeah, I I could see that. The thing with me is I don't really think of doing that often.

SPEAKER_02 27:25

Well, as previously mentioned, you have a lot of iPhone questions, which means that you're not super into your phone.

SPEAKER_00 27:31

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 27:32

And but also you're a little bit older. Yeah. And you know, I think it's just more of like a general generational thing, but also it's just not something that's super common or something you are used to. So but I think that if you were to start doing it more, you'd be like, oh snap, this is like super easy and convenient.

SPEAKER_00 27:50

Yeah, that's true. Um, what I was gonna say is that I may not embrace it because I like the idea of engagement. And I I have a feeling that if I'm being recorded, then I'm just gonna feel like I'm leaving this long voicemail and I'm just gonna ramble. Whereas if I have you there to balance out the rambling, then it's gonna be a quicker kind of thing.

SPEAKER_02 28:24

No, see, I think it might be, I mean, maybe, but also I think it might be the opposite because you're aware that you're being recorded, so you won't ramble. You'll only say the the necessence necessary information.

SPEAKER_00 28:36

Maybe. All right, my next one is a little bit more of a bookend to your previous question, and it is do you prefer spring or fall? Now you can think of each coast.

SPEAKER_02 28:50

Okay, well, first of all, Florida only has summer. That's right. So there is no spring or fall. Um or winter. But okay, so here is what I will say. The spring in Portland, Oregon is gorgeous. Right now, I got all the cherry blossoms, um, all the flowers are starting to bloom, all the roses, blah, blah, blah. It's gorgeous here, and I do love it. Um, however, fall will always hold a special place in my heart. I don't know if it's because my birthday is in October, but um I love fall so much. I love the leaves changing. I love the cooler weather where it's like cool but not cold. Um, I love that it's like a little gloomier, and plus there's Halloween, which I love, and um and Thanksgiving. So I don't know, man. I yeah, I like fall.

SPEAKER_00 29:54

Well, I have to agree with you. Um, the only reason that I struggled with this is because of the aesthetics of spring. Spring is so colorful and the ambiance in the the whole like essence of being broken out of the winter gloom in that that's like a new fresh start. Yeah, yeah. Um, that's that's why I would pick spring. But if I had to choose one, the cozy vibes of fall, you can't replace that. Yeah, it is something to be so cozy, yes. Yeah, yeah. So, and I don't love the colors of fall. I I gotta be honest, I don't love it.

SPEAKER_02 30:40

Now they get high pitched.

SPEAKER_00 30:42

I know. I mean, driving around with all the fall leaves everywhere, it is gorgeous. I just mean from a palette standpoint, spring is so colorful and beautiful and totally vibe my vibe. But the fall colors from a nature standpoint, I love it. But from a palette standpoint, it's just a tad, just a tad depressing. But it's not, you know, no, you're right.

SPEAKER_02 31:13

You're right, yeah. Um, I also love the crunchy leaves. Yeah. Oh gosh, I love me a good crunchy leaf, man. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 31:22

That's very true. And I never knew what that was until I moved here. So before it was palm fronds everywhere, right? Yeah. Oh okay. What you got next?

SPEAKER_02 31:36

Okay, I'm gonna step it up a little. Let's see. Okay, here's a fun one that I really liked. Okay, would you rather watch a comedian in a dramatic movie or watch a dramatic actor in a comedy?

SPEAKER_00 31:53

I would absolutely rather see the the the second one.

SPEAKER_02 32:00

The dramatic actor in a comedy.

SPEAKER_00 32:02

Yes, I would rather see that. I think it is so cringe to see someone who is primarily physically humorous. Um, they either do shticks, they're known for their humor. And two that come to mind is Jim Carrey and Will Farrell. When they have tried serious roles, I can't latch on to that. I can't do it. So you did not like Eternal Sunshine? I did not enjoy it as much as everybody else did.

SPEAKER_02 32:31

What about Stranger Than Fiction? Same. The Trend Show was kind of a serious movie.

SPEAKER_00 32:40

Yeah, there was enough comedy in it. It had a little bit more balance than Spotless Mind. Okay. I just I don't like that that movie that's called and I haven't seen it, but I I refuse number 23. Oh, that one was okay. But I just can't do it. I cannot do it. Now, Jim Carrey, and I hate to pigeonhole actors like that, but you you started on In Living Color or Will Farrell's sake, SNL. You know, I just feel like the foundation is laid.

unknown 33:15

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 33:16

And then they want to go build somewhere else. I don't like it. I can't. What about Uncut Gems with Adam Sandler? Okay, that I will give a pass. I don't understand it, but I have given Adam Sandler a pass. I think he's an excellent actor that doesn't seem like he tries too hard in a serious role.

SPEAKER_01 33:36

Seriously, yeah. Exactly.

SPEAKER_00 33:37

Yeah, see, that's what it is. Thank you. It's I feel like I feel like Jim Carrey is very visually trying too hard. Adam Sandler, it's just natural. I don't get it, but it is what it is.

SPEAKER_02 33:55

Yeah. I mean, that's a good example as a contrast. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I have another example. And this is not a movie, it's a TV show. What about Barry? Oh my gosh. With Bill Hader. That show.

SPEAKER_00 34:14

Bill, oh, that show is so good. It's so good. All right. We are not paid to say this, guys, but man, you must see that show. It's on HBO. It's on HBO, it's only four seasons. If you watch any new series next, make it Barry. Please. Yeah, Barry. You will be hooked in the first four episodes. Oh gosh. Okay. Back to our very difficult question. Um, Bill Hater gets a pass. Okay, so that's great.

SPEAKER_02 34:46

Okay, so there are examples of where the comedian does well in a dramatic movie, but if you had to choose, you would rather see a dramatic actor in a comedy.

unknown 34:56

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 34:57

I agree with that. Yes. I think it's because of the delivery. We kind of, even if they're being serious, we kind of think it's funny because they're in a comedy.

SPEAKER_02 35:10

Yeah. It's like the whole idea You're so used to seeing this actor a certain way, and then all of a sudden they're being funny. Like it's great. It's so like it's so heartwarming. Um, a great example is Robert De Niro in um Meet the Parents.

SPEAKER_00 35:26

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 35:28

It's it's so great. Very, very much a culture. Most recently, um Liam Neeson in Naked Gun, the Naked Gun remake. Uh it wasn't I thought you had a lost me on that one. Did you see it? And you didn't like it. Yeah, I did see it. I didn't like it. I thought they did a really good job. Um also I'm a little biased because Akiva Shaffer wrote it, who's part of the Lonely Island. Um, but it it was nice to see such a dramatic actor in a such a silly role. And so yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_00 36:01

Maybe I'm just not, I don't know. I'm I think the that example probably is because I don't I'm not a big fan of Liam Neeson. I like him in Darkman, I just because of the campiness, and that's where he kind of like, you know, nobody really knew who he was. But once he started doing action, and you know, I don't know. I just am not a Liam Neeson fan. He's a little stale for me. I don't know. I can't. Okay. But but good examples nonetheless. But I just um I'd have to kind of think of more.

SPEAKER_02 36:38

But what about ooh, I got a good one. What about when Tom Cruise was in um gold member?

SPEAKER_00 36:47

Yes, that's that is a a a good example. Um I just would rather that. If I if I if I were to have to see a comedian actor, you put it this way, it is very, very much there's like a whole nuance to it because some can win me over, some can just be like, no, I can't watch your movies. So it's really, really hard to say. Yeah, yeah. But if I had to, it would be the serious actor in a comedy. Agreed. Yeah. What you got? Um, okay. So ox cord or shotgun. Which do you choose? Why wouldn't it be both? No. You have to choose one.

SPEAKER_02 37:36

I can either sit in the passenger seat or choose the music.

SPEAKER_00 37:40

Yes.

SPEAKER_02 37:41

Dumb. That should be being in the passenger seat should give you full control, but I realize not the that's not the point of this game.

SPEAKER_00 37:50

Right.

SPEAKER_02 37:51

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 37:52

Um there's no best case scenarios in this game.

SPEAKER_02 37:55

I'd rather choose the music because I you know I am very weird about music. I don't listen to a lot of music, and I don't so when I do listen to music, I want to listen to music that I know. So I don't give a crap about sitting in the passenger seat. I'll sit in the back. I'll sit in the trunk if I can call the music.

SPEAKER_00 38:16

That's right. That's basically what I would have said. Um yeah.

SPEAKER_02 38:20

I'm I'm you are a big you would choose that for a different reason. Yeah, I would just choose you have better taste.

SPEAKER_00 38:26

Yeah. Yeah. I just I love and I and I'm such a fan, and everybody that knows me knows that I'm always trying to show you songs that I just discovered and or even a whole genre. As a matter of fact, I have sent you songs and I got nothing. You left me on red on so many of them. That's probably true. Yeah. You're like, yeah, I don't, I'm not going into Spotify right now. But at the same time, if I share music with you, just know that that is that's a part of your soul. Yeah, that's a very good thing.

SPEAKER_02 39:01

So yeah, and I feel like that's accurate for majority of people. And so I feel like such a jerk when someone shares their music with me and I don't resonate with it the same way they do. I have I don't have the same connection feeling with it, yeah, and I hate that. And that's a different problem than anything.

SPEAKER_00 39:22

Yeah, but hey, that's humble in itself, but think of it this way. If someone shares a song with you, just know that your opinion on it, whether you like it or not, it matters to them because they thought of you when they heard it. Or you are one of the people they thought of when they heard it.

SPEAKER_02 39:43

I just feel like they're gonna be disappointed in my response. And I just want to listen to Cotton Eye Joe.

SPEAKER_00 39:53

Totally valid. But let's let's think of it this way. How do you feel when you talk about a movie? You're so like, yeah, it's great, but when it comes to a song, you're like, how do I tell them I don't like it? Yeah, you know? So it's very interesting. Yeah. But okay, so that's our answer. We have the same answer there.

SPEAKER_02 40:14

Yeah. Actually, I feel like a lot of these are pretty much the same.

SPEAKER_00 40:17

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 40:18

Um, what do we got? Would you rather go skydiving or scuba diving?

SPEAKER_00 40:26

Okay. You know, I don't even know why I went into the depth, no pun intended, of this question. Because I would not want to go underwater like that. Like, I I don't care about what's going on under there as much as most people, maybe. I'm like, hey, that's their business. Whatever they got swaying under the water.

SPEAKER_03 40:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 40:50

Um, so definitely skydiving. And I know you would probably choose that because you chose that once in your life.

SPEAKER_02 40:58

That is correct. I have gone skydiving, and being from Florida, there should have been uh more than one opportunity to go scuba diving. But it's it the same. I have the same outlook. Like it there are so many things happening underwater. Also, like we're not supposed to breathe under there. So the fact that I need an apparatus, a breathing apparatus to exist. Like, I think that they should just leave it be. There's a lot of like that angler fish, that fish, I don't not that I would go that deep, obviously, but like stuff like that, like I don't want to I think it would be cool. I think eventually I'd like to go scuba diving. However, yeah, I don't have much interest in it. Skydiving, I will say, was very exhilarating. It was really cool. I don't know if I'd do it again, um, but I'm really glad that I got to do it. It was really, really awesome. Okay. Other except after we pulled the parachute, not a fan. I got super nauseous. Really? Yeah, like the free falling was great. I was like, this is amazing. I'm literally falling in the sky, like it's so weird. And then he pulled the parachute and we're just floating there, and I got really sick. I didn't throw up or anything, but anyway, skydiving was cool.

SPEAKER_00 42:22

Okay. Um would you rather be the first to arrive or the last to leave?

SPEAKER_02 42:33

Ugh. First to arrive. So I can leave whenever I want.

unknown 42:39

Yep.

SPEAKER_02 42:40

I said the same thing. I'm usually the first to arrive anyway.

SPEAKER_00 42:43

I know. And and I do know that about you because we we did talk about this on the phone one time. And I hate showing up after let's just say even a handful of people are there. Yeah. Because especially like if there's an event where you gotta find a table. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Yeah, that is the worst. It's like the whole world is looking at you choose who you think would not mind you sitting near them. You know, things like that. Or talk about overthinking.

SPEAKER_02 43:11

Going on dates, which obviously you don't do, but as a single person, if I'm gonna go on a date, I'm gonna show up an hour early. Yeah. Just to make sure that they are looking for me.

SPEAKER_00 43:22

And then they walk in, you'd be like, Oh, how you've been sitting here long? No, I just got here.

unknown 43:28

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 43:29

Exactly. Gotta be all nonchalant about it. But exactly. Um, yeah, no, I'd rather arrive early. Yes. Definitely.

SPEAKER_00 43:37

Same, same.

SPEAKER_02 43:39

Um, would you rather sing in the shower or the car? Or which do you prefer, I guess? Oh.

SPEAKER_00 43:48

Well, okay, we talked about this too.

unknown 43:50

What?

SPEAKER_00 43:51

We talked about the shower singing, I think on episode one or when we did the icebreakers two. I can't remember which one.

SPEAKER_01 44:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 44:00

But I was saying that I never do either. But I would say if I were to do one, I know what you're gonna say. The car. Oh what? Yeah, well, I sound better in the shower, but the car, I have a little bit more freedom in my encasing of my metal casing that I have around me. Okay. And I don't have to worry about anybody hearing me seeing bad.

SPEAKER_02 44:27

That's really surprising because I thought you were gonna say the shower so that nobody can see you. Because if you're belting out to Mireia, Carey, and your car, people can see like you jamming. So I'm surprised because you do not like when people can see you.

SPEAKER_00 44:42

Uh-uh. I'm very conscious when I'm in the car. Like if I'm eating in the car or whatever, I'm like, don't look at me. Don't do it. Exactly. That's why I can't believe you took the car. If I'm okay, no, if you want a little bit more context, if I'm driving and people are driving too and nobody's paying attention to me, yeah. But if I'm at a stoplight, you think I'm gonna continue that song? No. I'm just gonna let it play. Pam.

SPEAKER_02 45:09

You gotta live your life, man. Who cares about other people?

SPEAKER_00 45:15

Okay, Rihanna. Um, I agree with you. I'm not even I'm not even like denying XYZ. I just, I just know. But that's just me. That's my answer. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 45:34

Well, yeah, I I have a a typical Kim answer. It's a little bit of both. So I don't have a car. So at the time at this moment, I only have shower singing. Um, and I do it daily. Every morning, I well, that's not true. Uh my weekend showers, I definitely sing full volume in the shower. But um it does not beat the long drives that I would have to take in my van and then just belting out. Oh my gosh, my radio did not work, or the speakers in my van didn't work. So I had a big Bluetooth speaker. I was gonna ask about that. Okay, yeah. Yeah, I didn't, it was disappointing. But I had this great Bluetooth speaker that I would turn up all the way, and oh, me and Celine Dion, we had some good times. Like I would my eyes would start tearing when I would belt out to Celine Dion. Like it was powerful. Yeah. So I prefer car singing for sure. Okay, and I do not care who looks at me next to when they're next to me.

SPEAKER_00 46:49

Yeah, and I I pretty much would figure that. Um these are these are the type of questions that absolutely expose the difference in me and you. Yeah, and I think those things are yeah, yeah. And I think those things are interesting because you know, sometimes we wish that we could be the opposite way, you know, but it's not it's not in us sometimes, depending on what it is. And sometimes we're like, you know what, I'm gonna try that this week. So yeah. Um, and and let me also say the difference too between the shower thing and with me and you is I can't as as goofy as I am around my family, I can't sing in the shower if they're home. Because I feel like they're out there with their bucket of you know popcorn just laughing, you know, at me singing. So if I lived alone, maybe a different story.

SPEAKER_02 47:40

Michelle has, I think, mentioned to you on numerous occasions that whenever I'm staying at her house, she hears me singing in the shower. I think she likes it. I don't know. I hope she does because I'm not gonna stop.

SPEAKER_00 47:52

But um well, I do remember in Tampa when we when we all met together, you were doing that, and I thought it was funny. You even told us, just so you know. I might be singing, so you know.

SPEAKER_02 48:02

It just makes me feel better.

SPEAKER_00 48:03

Yeah, well, that's good. Yeah, it's harmless, depending on how bad you sing.

SPEAKER_02 48:08

Right, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 48:09

Um, okay. So, okay, well, that's a good segue into this question, which is would you prefer night showers or morning showers?

SPEAKER_02 48:20

Oh, oh gosh. This one's so controversial because based on what I see on the internet, night showers are where it's at. Like, like a lot of people are like, look, you're freaking dirty. Like you lived the entire day. Yeah, this and this and this. You need to shower at night before you get into your clean sheets. I am a morning shower person. I do not shower at night. First of all, I'm too lazy. I'm tired. I just want to do nothing. Yeah, second of all, I sweat a lot when I sleep. Um not a lot. It's not like my sheets are covered in sweat. It was almost like you offended yourself. I did. I was so mad at myself. It's not a lot, but my point is that I sweat a little bit when I sleep, but my scalp sweats. So I need to wash my hair every morning. My hair and my face. So if I was to take a shower at night, my hair and face would still feel gross in the morning.

SPEAKER_00 49:22

So I'm a morning shower person. So now that that makes sense for you because of the reasons you gave. Um with me, I would prefer night showers. However, the difference between me and you is I do not wash my hair every single day because my hair's thick. Correct.

SPEAKER_02 49:40

Well, also, you're not supposed to do it anyway, but I don't care. I have to wash my hair every day. I'm sorry. Yeah, to all that. Well, it's the hair people. The hair people, the stylists and the hair enthusiasts.

SPEAKER_00 49:52

Yeah. Well, I used to, the stylist that I used to have, she told me hairstylists and dermatologists are absolutely completely opposite. Dermatologists are like, no, you need to wash your hair this many times a week, blah, blah, blah. Hairstylists are like, whatever you can get away with, and it makes your hair look good. Because sometimes you train your hair, and if you can go, according to stylists, if you can go, let's just say hypothetically, three days without washing your hair, and it it looks good, rock it. But dermatologists are like, um, what? And then they battle it out. But no.

SPEAKER_02 50:33

Um if I go more than two days without washing my hair, I look like a greasy rat.

SPEAKER_00 50:38

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 50:39

Like it's so cool.

SPEAKER_00 50:40

I mean, I'm not agreeing.

SPEAKER_02 50:41

Yeah, you do look like a greasy rat.

SPEAKER_01 50:45

I love you, but ew.

SPEAKER_00 50:47

Yeah, I know, I know. No, I don't remember, but I know that I'm agreeing because I know that you struggle with your hair. So I get it because I know that it's a struggle. You always have to keep it washed because it gets greasy fast. Where did you get thick hair from? I guess um, grandma.

SPEAKER_02 51:05

Oh, yeah, that makes sense. Because Michelle and I, you know, we don't like you because of that. Our hair is so thin, and your hair doesn't make any sense biologically. Um also, do you side note? Do you remember, and I know I bring this up like every five years, um when I was first learning how to wash my own hair. Oh I was like seven, and I had to use shampoo and conditioner, and then I was like, Pam, how do I know when when all the conditioner is out of my hair? And you're like, when it doesn't feel soft anymore. Or no, you didn't say soft. You said when it doesn't feel slick anymore. And I'm like, that doesn't make sense because conditioner is supposed to make your hair feel slick. Anyway, I remember it being an we had more than one argument about my hair. You used to get mad that I would air dry it instead of blow dry it. You hated it.

SPEAKER_00 52:11

I hated. Um because it it I felt like it made it limp if you compare between the two. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 52:19

But I mean, I can't remember now. Possibly, yeah. I don't know, man. I just remember you being mad at me a lot for my decisions. Let's just take it out of hair.

SPEAKER_00 52:29

Let's go on to general, you know, subjects, general hatred. Yeah. Okay. Um, so But also, we we gotta also, since we're on the topic of hair, do you also remember, which you also bring up sometimes, and I think it's hilarious. Yes, go ahead. You you were speaking to a stylist, and she was you were saying how you would wash your hair, but your sister taught you to let to lather twice. But she was like, Oh my god, no. And then later you said, but I forgot to tell her it was only a dime size, and I feel like that would have changed everything.

SPEAKER_02 53:10

Not only was it a stylist, it was my friend Danielle. Oh yeah, yeah, is Daniela listening? No, Danielle does not listen. I'm just gonna shut her up. Hey Danielle Flowers. Um, but yeah, I was like, yeah, so I I I was told that you're supposed to wash your hair twice. The second time, well, well, I didn't specify that, but um, and then I I even pointed out like on the back of shampoo bottles, it says rinse and repeat. Yeah. And she's like, no, that's a scam. They just want you to go through the shampoo quicker than you're supposed to. Yeah. And then I was like, oh yeah, maybe you're right. And then I go home later and I'm like, oh crap, I meant to tell her that like the second time you wash your hair is just such a tiny amount that it wouldn't even make sense.

SPEAKER_00 54:00

Yeah, you don't need a yeah. I mean, it's literally smaller than a dime size. Yes, like a peanut size. And on top of that, the placement of that is right there at your um root. Is it the crown right there where your bangs are?

SPEAKER_03 54:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 54:16

So that's really the focus because that's what gets your hand touches that a lot. So that's where you get greasier. And so that's kind of the focus of where you put the second one. And that we that really helps the first session wash out. So it's it's really just a thing.

SPEAKER_02 54:33

Um, my next question is would you rather shop online or in store? I thought this was a great question for you.

SPEAKER_00 54:40

It is because I okay, if I have to give a solid, simple answer, it would hey, let's try that for a concept. Um, I would say in person. I absolutely like the idea. Now let's not let's not get it twisted. I am not a shopper. If I am looking for something, I will go. If I want to go to a thrift store, I want to just go. I don't I'm not in my teens anymore. I don't just go to the mall and shop all day. And even a particular store, the only store I will spend a lot of time in is a thrift store. I just there's so much to to you know see there. Now if I just want to get something that I'll probably pay less for online, then I'll just do it like that. But if I had to choose, I would say in person so that I can see, feel, try on, um, experience just being out of the house, you know, that kind of thing.

SPEAKER_02 55:47

Well, I'm a I am an online shopper. First of all, I'm really bad at shopping. Like I am notoriously bad at shopping. I don't know how to explain what I mean. You're just gonna have to take my word for it. But that's one of the many reasons.

SPEAKER_00 56:04

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 56:05

So I prefer online shopping. And what's frustrating about that is that I do need to try clothes on. I not only am I super short, but I have there are like certain clothes that I need to try on in order to make sure that they work with my body. Right. And I would I would rather buy 10 pairs of jeans online in different sizes and shapes and then return what doesn't work than to go and try on clothes.

SPEAKER_00 56:37

Because that is such a Kim answer.

SPEAKER_02 56:39

It's so ridiculous, Pam. And I I agree, I am a disaster. But I it could be worse. It could be worse. When I go to department stores to try on clothes, um I get first of all, it's very time consuming to like pick out all of these clothes you want to try on and then try them on. But what's so frustrating about for me about trying clothes on is how hot I get. I get so hot in those changing rooms because the lights are so bright, it's an enclosed room, and I don't, it's just so unenjoyable for me. I hate it. And although it is way more efficient than what I mentioned previously, it's just it's I'm not a fan. And um what I will also say is that online shopping gives me a lot more options, which is not necessarily a good thing. I know, um, in terms of being overwhelmed, but I'm able to control the overwhelmingness, I guess, a little bit more when it's online. Um yeah, so and then you know, being able to sort things by fil with filters, um, like lowest to highest price, that sort of thing, that's definitely a huge that's the perks there of that, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 57:57

Yeah, and I think in your case, in your defense, because I have because I use public transportation, yes, yeah. If I didn't have a vehicle and didn't feel like you know, riding with 27 weird folks, I would definitely shop online. So I I get you there.

SPEAKER_02 58:18

Um in their defense, the folks on the public transportation are not always weird. I know. It's definitely it's inconvenient to carry things on a bus or a train. And that's what I don't like. It's very it's very awkward and uncomfortable to just carry like bags of clothes or bags of trinkets or groceries. I get my groceries delivered because it's just not. Not only am I not strong enough to carry the groceries that I need to need to carry, but I'm so short that when I hold the bags at my sides, they are on the ground. I don't know why that's so funny, but that's so true. It's a real struggle. It is. And people don't understand what it's like to be five feet tall.

SPEAKER_00 59:06

No, no. Gosh, preach it, girl.

SPEAKER_02 59:14

Okay, what is your next question, please?

SPEAKER_00 59:16

Okay, we're gonna start to get in weird territory. Maybe not, because I'm bouncing around here, but I have a few here that are weird. Okay, okay, wet socks or cold hands. Such a weird one. That is a weird one.

SPEAKER_02 59:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 59:34

Thanks, internet.

SPEAKER_02 59:37

Yeah. So can I take off the wet socks? And can I put gloves on my hands?

SPEAKER_00 59:43

Wet socks or okay.

SPEAKER_02 59:46

So what you're saying meaning no, yes, wet socks, yes, or cold hands. Okay, I think to be honest, I think I'm gonna p pick wet socks. That is because it's hilarious. I don't like I don't like my feet being cold, but I'd rather my feet be wet than my hands be cold.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:10

Correct, yes. And that's exactly the way I thought of it. Now, when I'm driving around here in the winter time and I forget my gloves, pumping gas is the worst experience ever. It hurts, it hurts, yeah, and then in just that, let's just say two to three minutes, you're standing there, there is no pocket warm enough to accommodate your cold hands, and you get so angry at your hands being that cold. It is ridiculous. Yes, I would take I would take the wet socks because you can kind of almost overlook it and not think about it. But what if you're walking around with it with them in your shoes? That's bad. I'm still going with it.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:58

Well, yeah, because I have, I mean, just a couple days ago, I had wet socks all day at work because well, I know, but it rained on my way to work and um my I was wearing Converse. So obviously the rain got through and my feet were wet all day. So it was tolerable. What was not tolerable were my cold hands. So yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:25

Okay, I think your question is next.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:27

I it is okay. So here's one that could be pretty easy because I don't think that you have an opinion either way. Um, do you prefer Marvel or DC characters or movies?

SPEAKER_00 1:01:41

I do have an opinion. I actually am more of a DC girl. Yeah, I know you're a Marvel Glory. You're a Marvel girl.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:50

I love Batman, but yeah, Marvel, oh my goodness, they yeah. So good.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:58

Yeah, I just feel like all of the comp the characters in DC, to me, except for except for like I don't know, like Captain America is different. I kind of like I like that one, Ant-Man, but I just feel like DC is more like I don't know. I don't know why I like it better. I like Batman, I like Superman. Do you think that Disney has changed your opinion a little bit? Disney I don't think about when I think about Marvel necessarily. I I think it's the production of it. That's what I mean.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:38

Like DC movies are a little bit darker, yeah, and Marvel's a little more uh way too flashy for me. Yeah, and like fun and cute and heartwarming sometimes. Yeah, maybe.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:52

And let's be fair, okay? I have seen more DC movies than Marvel because I'm not a I'm not truly interested in starting over, and I know that you did in your um in a certain time in your life, you were kind of like you did the whole binge thing. I just I'm just not I I'm I'm a I'm sure that my answer may be a little bit harder if I dove into Marvel films, but they're just so overwhelmingly epic that I'm just like, oh gosh, it is so much.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:30

Yeah, that's how I feel about Game of Thrones and why I've never started it. I I just can't I can't commit to something like that. I really got into it when the first Avengers came out, and then I kind of backtracked a little bit. But yes, so for those who don't know, about six years ago I did like a three-day marathon of watching all of the Marvel movies that were out at the time, which were about 21 or 24 movies. Oh my gosh. And it was a lot and it was amazing, and I watched them in chronological order of when they were set, not in when they came out. And um, it was it was very epic.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:09

And did you have a a key to go by?

SPEAKER_02 1:04:13

Yeah, I Googled, yeah, I Googled a list of of how I should watch all of these movies, and it was um, I saw differing opinions, and then eventually the votes were that I should watch them in chronological order of when they were set. If I were to do it again, I'd probably watch them and when they came out. So that would basically start with the first incredible Hulk. So anyway, it was really awesome and something I recommend. But I know it is a lot, it's a lot to commit to.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:44

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:04:45

The perks of being single with no children.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:48

Yeah, yes, that's true. Yeah. Um, I will say on a side note and a very biased side note, I am team Sam Raimi, Spider-Man, all the way. Oh, okay. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with Tom Holland's version, but I feel like the direction and Toby Maguire and I love Kirsten Dunst. I just feel like that whole circle of production, especially Spider-Man 2. Can we please shout it out right now? That is the peak right there. But they ruined it with three. Now, to be fair, the production ruined it with three. The production, not Sam Raimi.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:32

Oh, okay, okay. He was gonna control. Yes. I see.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:36

A little dance and Toby. You gotta be kidding.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:39

So what happened? Well, I know. We don't have to get into that. Yeah, I know. But what I will say is that yes, I absolutely love the original Spider Man. But Tom Holland is the most perfect Peter Parker. Like he's so young and innocent, and like Sweet, like I just feel like he fits Peter Parker's vibe. Yeah. Even though I love Toby McGuire's take on it. But anyway, yeah. It's just I don't know. And then No, but I get it.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:10

I that's what I'm saying. I don't I don't hate on Tom Holland's version. I do hate on Andrew.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:15

But I don't but I well, no, we're not gonna get no, I know. I'm just saying, I just I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:22

Um but I just feel like Toby's is good.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:25

It's that Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland are both British and they have such good American accents.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:31

That's true.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:31

It's wild.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:33

Anyway, they said, I'm Spider-Man, isn't it?

SPEAKER_02 1:06:40

Oh, that was funny. It was a terrible accent, but that was funny.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:43

I know, I know. You gotta do it with a terrible accent. Yeah. Um, okay. So this a hummingbird just flew in front of my window. Now that is definitely worth interrupting with. Yeah. Shout out to the hummingbird. Okay, go ahead. Okay. Okay, this one is so deep and such a great Kim question. Ooh. This one I struggled with. Okay. Would you rather have, and you probably have had both, because I think everybody has had both. Loud neighbors or nosy neighbors?

SPEAKER_02 1:07:21

Nosy. That's what I was gonna say. 100%. I would rather you ask me every second about my life than for you to be loud and interrupt my day.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:33

Okay, but what if they're nosy in a relentless kind of way? What if they're asking things that you're just like, this is making me uncomfortable? Then I'll tell them it's uncomfortable.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:46

Like, or I won't answer them. But I can control that because I have my own apartment. Yeah. That's what I was gonna say.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:53

I have control of you can control what comes out of your mouth, so you can almost mess with it.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:59

Like, I can control how much they're interfering with me, like just by closing the door in their face. I can't control how noisy they're being.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:08

Could you imagine them like like in the movies when they're poking their head in your window and everything? Like literally just minding your own business. Oh my gosh. Yeah. Thank you. But yeah, I had the same answer. But the crazy thing is, is I'm sure that we have all had both. And loud neighbors to me, and I know that all three of us have had this discussion.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:30

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:31

But loud neighbors are the worst because of how we were raised. We are all super considerate.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:38

Yes. I used to mom used to yell at me for allowing the the kitchen cabinets to close on their own instead of me manually closing them. And that is burned into me.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:51

Yeah. Yeah. She needs to shop at IKEA.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:55

Right? Soft clothes is where it's at. That's right. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, yeah, she was on top of that for sure. Making sure we were considerate.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:06

The crazy thing is, I don't remember specific things like that, but I just know that she was like that. She was very, very much about how you were to not inconvenience the ones around you. And I now I live by that same mindset. And Michelle used to get mad at you for how hard you walked. I know. And you've got to do that. And the crazy thing is, now I walk toe heel, toe heel. Right, yes. Or I walk side of foot down, side of foot down.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:43

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:44

It depends. If it's if it's on the carpet, it's usually side of foot down. Right, yeah. Yeah. But when you get on the hard floor, it's toe heel, toe heel.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:54

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that was a good one. Um, would you rather have ice water or room temperature water?

SPEAKER_00 1:10:06

Okay, the old me would have said ice water, but for some reason, I when we buy bottles of water, we are just leaving them out and everybody just grabs them. And honestly, it is like it doesn't bother any of us. Yeah. Um, if it's a little warm, that's annoying. But we keep them in room temperature. Right. Yeah. We keep it in a um like a utility closet and it works. And it's just you grab it, you drink it, and it doesn't offend the teeth, or you know, it doesn't perfectly fine.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:45

Yeah, I'm a room temperature fan also. Yeah. I don't I don't need all that.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:49

It's so weird. We have keep having the same answer. It's almost like you, it's almost like you, I don't know, looked at my answers and you cheated.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:58

I looked at your answers of questions that you didn't know were coming yet. Yeah, yeah, exactly.

unknown 1:11:02

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:05

Okay. That's your next one. Okay. Would you rather listen to a podcast or listen to an audiobook?

SPEAKER_02 1:11:14

Well, this leads to another question, which is would you rather read a book or listen to a book? I had that too. Yeah, so I think that I'm gonna choose podcasts because if I was to take a book in, I would rather read it.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:31

Right.

SPEAKER_02 1:11:31

Whereas with a podcast, you can only listen or watch it. And I'd rather listen to a podcast than to listen to an audiobook. And that is my detailed answer.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:43

And I have the same answer, but my reasoning is different. Okay. I have tried well, it's kind of like one of those this, but only if it's this kind of answers. But if it's a podcast, they're being themselves, right? If it's an audiobook, and let's just say it's a fiction book, no. I've tried it. I don't like the voices that these people put on. Yeah, I don't like it. It doesn't, it doesn't compel me to, you know, want to listen to the rest. Right. If it's a non-fiction, I have done that. But and I don't and I don't, I mean, I enjoy those.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:24

Yeah. I would like to point out that there are situations where I prefer the audiobook, and that is when it's a celebrity's memoir. So for instance, Mindy Kaling, Tina Faye, and Amy Polar all have books that they have put out about their life, and I would much prefer hearing the them reading their own book than for me to read it in their voice. Okay. I think it's a lot more entertaining. So it is. I agree with that. Yeah, it just depends. But yeah, overall, yes, I would prefer a podcast over an audiobook.

SPEAKER_00 1:12:57

I have listened to Amy Polar's Yes Please, and that was a very entertaining audience. It's super cute. Yeah. Her voice just makes me want to just, you know, listen to whatever else she's got.

SPEAKER_02 1:13:09

I think that you would like Tina FaZe.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:11

I probably would. I I eventually will, you know, listen to it. But um, but if we're on the subject of not the you know, nuanced answers, I would say a podcast because it's a lot more like matter-of-factly delivery, like we do here. Um audiobooks to me, the only reason I would choose it is if it was nonfiction. And so if I'm gonna kind of say, but only if this and maybe not that, then I can't choose that. So I would say podcast.

SPEAKER_02 1:13:44

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:45

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:13:46

Would you rather live in the country or the city?

SPEAKER_00 1:13:49

Oh, country, 100%.

SPEAKER_02 1:13:51

Ugh.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:55

So see, now there, there's where we're very different. We have very different lives that way.

SPEAKER_02 1:14:02

Yeah. And well, see, okay, so yes, I would rather live in the city, but not for regular city reasons. Like it's not like I'm out and about all the time doing things and going to all these no. I'm not like going to all these restaurants and events and blah, blah, blah. Um, but I like that there's the option. I like that there are always things to do. I like that I can walk down the street and find a bunch of things to do. Portland has all of these like little tiny neighborhoods where their own, they're their own little city. And I love that about big cities. And so um, convenience of it is where I'm at. Like it's super convenient. Whereas living in the country, you can't walk to Food Lion. You have to go drive to Food Lion. And it sucks. So, and I have a safe way down the street. I'm not like a city person for the reason that I should be a city person. I'm a city person out of necessity, convenience, laziness, yada yada yada.

SPEAKER_00 1:15:07

But rate, let's raise the stakes here. Okay. You this is coming from a person that would rather online shop.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:13

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 1:15:15

So I don't know. It seems to me like you just might enjoy the country life if you have things delivered to you.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:24

No, because if I was to live in the country and have things delivered to me, it it might not even be an option. There might not be people available to deliver those things.

SPEAKER_00 1:15:36

What if it was absolutely an option? Would you would you live in the country if you could have anything delivered to you?

SPEAKER_02 1:15:43

I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 1:15:44

You know what it is with you? No. Okay, go ahead. Let me say what it is with you. Options. You hate being forced to not have options. Now, let's say you were living in the city and you had the well, you are, and but right now you don't have to leave, but you'll have things delivered. So I think it's that you can't. But I can like being ending this. Yeah. Yeah. So you don't like being forced to do the same thing.

SPEAKER_02 1:16:16

I like the options.

SPEAKER_00 1:16:17

Yes.

SPEAKER_02 1:16:18

And whereas if I live in the country, I would have to have things delivered because I don't want to go get them. I don't want to drive 45 minutes to get band-aids from Walgreens. Like so, yeah, I have options here. And sometimes I do like to go out, not super often, but yeah, I like to go out. I like to go to bars. I like to um attend like local events that that they have around here. And don't even get me started with New York City because that talk about a vibe. I love New York City so much.

SPEAKER_00 1:16:54

I do too. But I I I did it once and I probably will never get back. You know, it's just one of those, like, yeah, I did it.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:01

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:17:03

It's one of those do it once um and say you went right rather than just keep wanting to go back, keep wanting to go back. It's just not, it's not in me to want to do that. Now, I've never been to Portland, Oregon. So when I go over there, hopefully this summer, um, it's gonna be one of those things where I'm like, yeah, it's good. Will I go back?

unknown 1:17:24

Maybe not.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:26

Probably not, but I think that you'll appreciate the artistic vibe here for sure. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah. And the weather.

SPEAKER_00 1:17:33

Yeah, from what I've seen um posted, I agree with that.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:37

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:17:39

All right. So we're going back to the pizza bit real quick, because I want to ask if you were to choose pizza, do you do deep dish or do you do thin crust?

SPEAKER_02 1:17:50

Thin crust.

SPEAKER_00 1:17:51

Me too.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:52

Yeah. Deep dish has too much sauce.

SPEAKER_00 1:17:56

Yeah. Yeah. Too much sauce, too much dough. But if you were to do the, you know, have the choice. Um I used to order thin crust all the time, and my family was like, why? It's such a waste if you're ordering this. And I'm like, I know, but the crisp. So, but now I'm compromising and just get a regular old-fashioned style pizza. Yeah, yeah. I love New York style, just the regular, like yes, yes. Back in Florida when we had Big Apple Pizza.

SPEAKER_02 1:18:28

Uh, that was my that was my first job, Pam. Oh, that's right.

unknown 1:18:32

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:18:32

I couldn't remember if it was, is that that place you were talking about in the first episode? No. Yeah. With David. That was Mario. Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_02 1:18:41

Yeah, that was my first job. Yeah. Okay. We've all come from uh full circle.

SPEAKER_00 1:18:46

Yeah. Definitely. So, okay, I didn't realize it was Big Apple. I knew we worked at a pizza place on, I think it was Bay Shore. Bishore. Okay, yeah. But I couldn't remember it being Big Apple. Yes. I remember I miss Big Apple. And here in um the town I live in, we do not have many non-franchise pizza places. And so everything we have here is like Domino's Pizza Hut. Um, we have a couple that are new, but I haven't really tried them yet. But there's no like New York style type pizza places out here that I know of. So if my listeners that are local with me and know me want to tell me, and I don't, I just don't know about it, please let me know.

SPEAKER_02 1:19:38

I would be happy to hear about it. On the food topic, yeah, this is my last food question. Do you prefer soft or hard tacos?

SPEAKER_00 1:19:47

Oh my gosh, I want to say both so bad because I can I just say shout out to Taco Bell when they had You're a big Taco Bell fan. I am when they had their double deckers.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:02

Oh yeah, yeah. Which is the the hard taco and then like a sauce, and then it's wrapped with a soft taco.

SPEAKER_00 1:20:10

Yes. Okay. So when I go to Taco Bell now, I get one um sh hard taco and then a soft taco, and I say no lettuce, and then I spread out whatever's on the soft taco and I wrap it around the hard taco, and it is cute. Delightful. Yeah, it is so good. And it's usually enough to fill me up, but sometimes I get two of two and two, so I can make two of them.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:36

I mean, have you tried the Crunch Wrap Supreme? Because it's very similar. Oh, that's what I always get is the Crunch Wrap Supreme.

SPEAKER_00 1:20:42

Yeah, but it's it's so much that it's almost too big, but I I do like it and I have gotten it before.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:49

But yeah, so I'm gonna say soft. Okay. That is also my preference. I don't like hard tacos. Um, I they fall apart, and then like what's the point? Yeah. So I prefer soft tacos for sure.

SPEAKER_00 1:21:03

Okay, okay, okay, easy one. No reason to follow, just that you like soft tacos.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:08

Yeah, the hard ones fall apart.

SPEAKER_00 1:21:09

Hey, let's try that. Try that avenue there. Um this one is so thought-provoking, but in a stupid way.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:20

Okay, my favorite.

SPEAKER_00 1:21:22

Yeah, I know. Hiccups for life or always about to sneeze, but never do it. Oh no! I know. Oh you thought you had an answer before you heard the second part.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:35

Yeah, but I I still think I'm gonna choose the second one because my hiccups hurt.

SPEAKER_03 1:21:44

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:45

Yeah, so I'm gonna go with I'm about to sneeze, but can't do it for the rest of my life.

SPEAKER_00 1:21:53

Okay. So I I feel like I don't like the idea of not sneezing so much that I would have to pick the pick the hiccups. Um, I would rather try to get rid of hiccups for the rest of my life than to not be able to sneeze.

SPEAKER_02 1:22:10

Pam, you love to talk so much. Like, can you imagine talking and hiccuping through the entire thing? Like, I know you would hate it. Could you guys imagine listening to this podcast with a bunch of hiccups? I'd cancel the podcast altogether if you had to hiccup the whole time. But then me, I'd be like, Oh, it went away. Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_00 1:22:36

God, that would be so unsatisfying a bug podcast.

SPEAKER_02 1:22:39

Yeah. Um would you rather watch a foreign film where you have subtitles or it's dubbed over?

SPEAKER_00 1:22:50

Oh, that is a super, super easy answer.

SPEAKER_02 1:22:53

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:22:55

I have to have the foreign uh dialogue with the subtitles.

SPEAKER_02 1:22:59

Subtitles. Okay, I agree with that. I don't like dubbed versions, it's so fake.

SPEAKER_00 1:23:03

Mm-hmm. It is. And it's almost it's almost laughable. Yeah. The entire time you're watching it, you just think it's so funny how when they pick these actors to use these voices, it's like, really? So dramatic. Yeah. Yeah. They're always making them sound so comical and cartoonic. Very much so.

SPEAKER_02 1:23:24

Okay, that was an easy one.

SPEAKER_00 1:23:26

Okay. Another one that is super deep and oh my gosh, what would I say? Would you always want to feel itchy or sticky? Oh, Pam! I know.

SPEAKER_02 1:23:42

So here's the deal. Okay. I'm always itchy as it is. There is never a second that goes by where something is not itching me at any given moment on my body.

SPEAKER_00 1:23:54

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 1:23:55

That being said, I hate stickiness.

SPEAKER_00 1:23:59

Me too.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:00

Oh my god, do I hate stickiness? Um I'm gonna have to go with itchy. I'd rather be itchy than sticky.

SPEAKER_00 1:24:09

This was very, and I I pretty much you pretty much said what I thought you were gonna say. But this was very difficult for me because I hate both of them. But if you're sticky, you're just sticky. And you you can exist. Yeah. And it not be super either painful or frustrating or what have you.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:31

Yeah. So I'd rather be sticky. So if I'm itchy, am I able to scratch it or no? Well, yeah. Oh, okay, okay, okay. Yeah. Itchy.

SPEAKER_00 1:24:44

Still itchy. I hate being sticky, but I would rather that than the worst. The the former. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:52

All right. So my next question is would you rather be able to visit the past or the future?

SPEAKER_03 1:25:03

Hmm.

SPEAKER_00 1:25:05

I I have to say that's not a hard one for me. I would like to go in the past. Because I'm so nothing. Just I would pull a full-on, you know, Christmas carol and just visit and observe and learn from it. I am so into nostalgia that I I don't want to know what's to come. Like I I think it's like spoiling a movie. I am so anti-movie spoilers that I would not want anything to be ruined.

SPEAKER_02 1:25:43

I would like to visit the future, but like a future where I'm already dead. My goodness. Like what I mean. I got dark quick. Because I agree with you. I don't like spoilers either. I don't want to know who I marry, where I live, what my life is. I'd like to know what happens after I die, like where technology is, where the future is, what is what the world will become like 200 years from now.

SPEAKER_00 1:26:14

That would probably depress me as a dead person.

SPEAKER_02 1:26:19

But I want to see it. I don't want to go back in time. I am, I look, I agree. I like nostalgia. Uh you know this. My our listeners know this. Yeah. I definitely love the 80s and 90s, yada yada. But I don't want to relive it. Um I do. Well, when I do, but I don't.

SPEAKER_00 1:26:40

Well, you okay. So the question that was presented was visit.

SPEAKER_02 1:26:44

Yes, I I you're right. I don't mean relive it. Um, I guess I just I would as much as I would love to go back in time and and visit, I think that the future would be a lot more. I I'm too curious to see what the future is like.

SPEAKER_00 1:27:01

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 1:27:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:27:03

I mean, that's it's very interesting because we we've had a lot of similar um perspectives and similar answers along the way, but I feel like that one is so vastly different for different reasons. Like I am so not interested to see, you know, of course, you know my stance on the whole AI, and I just I'm no, I'm so like not for it. And then to to move forward and see what hit I mean, it's gonna be like uh movie Wally, you know, like and ediocracy. Yeah, that too. Yeah. Um, I just don't want to find that out. Um, especially because I maybe it's because I'm a mom too, so I'm thinking about the life of my son, you know. But if you're talking long after everybody's gone, then that's a different story. But I still don't I still am not interested to see what's to come as much as I'm interested in visiting and learning from the past. Like I you would visit yourself, you think? Yeah. Oh, okay. I would visit I would visit the past. I would visit the uh the things around me that I never that I you know took for granted before.

SPEAKER_02 1:28:08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:28:09

I would visit the the loved ones that you know I would be able to pay attention to them more and sp and just kind of observe the world around me. Revisit things that I have forgotten.

SPEAKER_02 1:28:22

Even without being able to interact with anything. Yes, even without.

SPEAKER_00 1:28:27

I am all about the show. Please let me see it all. And then I will feel such a warm, fuzzy feeling for the rest of my life if I was able to do that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:28:39

Yeah. But all right. So you're past and I'm future. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:28:43

So vastly different. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Um, okay. Here's a funny one. Okay. Would you rather have, and I guess I'm gonna say me because in this podcast it's just me and you, but would you rather have your sister as your boss or your parent as a coworker? Uh and let's just say mom.

SPEAKER_02 1:29:10

I was gonna say which parent. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:29:13

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:29:14

So would I rather have you as my boss or mom as my coworker? Yes. I hate this question more than any question you've ever asked me in my entire life. That says a lot. Oh, mom was relentless, dude. She'd be like all up in my business. Um gosh. I think that having you as my boss would give me an advantage. I think that I have I'd be able to get away with a lot. Yeah. Um I don't think that you'd be a very good boss of mine. Like meaning you wouldn't be super strict. Yeah. So, and mom would be um embarrassing.

SPEAKER_00 1:30:10

Embarrassing co-worker.

SPEAKER_02 1:30:12

Yeah, she'd be embarrassing, she'd be nosy, she'd be um critiquing my work as a coworker. Like, like, why did you do it like this instead of like this? And I'd also have to show her how to copy and paste.

SPEAKER_00 1:30:32

To be fair, you'd probably also have to show your boss a lot of that.

SPEAKER_02 1:30:37

That's so true. Um, yeah, I think I'd rather have you as a boss than mom as a coworker.

SPEAKER_00 1:30:45

Okay. Now, when I answer the question, am I? I also will not be offended.

SPEAKER_02 1:30:51

Okay. Um only because I think that dad would have been like super chill. Like he'd built yeah. Yeah, he'd be a super quiet, mind his own business coworker. So yeah, we have to choose mom. She's the the annoying one of the two.

SPEAKER_00 1:31:12

Well, the funny thing is, as much as mom and I got along more than you and mom got along, I still and this is this is probably post us living together, you know, because you you've lived with mom and I've lived with mom post as adults marriage. Yes. Or post um, you know, as adults, yes. Yeah. Um I think I still would say that you would be my boss. And the main reason I say that, now, if you would have asked me this last year, I may have had a different answer. And I say may because I feel like the um the journey of having the podcast along the way, I think that there's, you know, that good chemistry that has helped me realize that you may be actually easy to work for, you know. Okay. There might be times when it's a rocky, you know, little rough area here and there. But but I do think that that would be the case as well. Um living with her is tough as an adult.

SPEAKER_02 1:32:26

It's so tough.

SPEAKER_00 1:32:27

Um, but I I did find my way around a little bit more, I would say, but it it's one of those things where it's easier for me to compromise than it was for you with her.

SPEAKER_02 1:32:40

So but I would like to point out also for our listeners, in case they in case it matters, that mom lived with us. Like we did not live with mom because we needed to as adults. She needed to live with us because of her situation. Yeah. So I think that's kind of also where the struggle is, and I think that that's why it might have been hard to live with her because she had she was so vulnerable and um and needed to live with her children.

SPEAKER_00 1:33:17

Yeah. So yeah, and um, I think she she didn't see the future of it as much as we did, but at the same time, our heart, you know opened that gate for her to be able to do it, and um, you know, and the rest is history, yeah. It's just one of those things where it was like it it was uh in our laps that we had to do with it.

SPEAKER_02 1:33:44

So I think that because of that dynamic uh and seeing that as a coworker situation, I I think that that's why I would not want her as a coworker.

SPEAKER_00 1:33:55

Okay. That's that's fair.

SPEAKER_02 1:33:58

Okay, all right. So my last question is would you rather sleep with sounds or sleep in silence?

SPEAKER_00 1:34:09

My answer probably embraces both in a way. Meaning, meaning I okay, I okay, when you talk about silence silence, yes, I I do not do silence at all. I sleep with a loud fan, a box fan. Uh-huh. Or when I used to do this, I would do white noise that I've done in the past. Um, I can't do silence at all. Or rain like rainstorms. Rainstorms I can do. It just has to be consistent. Wasn't that like part of your Spotify wrapped though?

SPEAKER_02 1:34:51

Yes. So I know that you did listen to it a lot. Yeah. Okay. Oh my gosh. And then you got mad because it got wrapped into your algorithm.

SPEAKER_00 1:35:02

Yes, I was so mad. And I'm still struggling with that. Meaning like purging it from my not my wrapped, but it it sometimes will show up in my um, you know, when you suggested that play. Yeah. And I'm like, um, I'm over that, please. That's a stage that's over. Um but yeah, so two different times this has happened. If you remember when we went to go visit dad in Florida, and we stayed in that hotel, all three of us in Western Florida, when he was having um a hospital visit or something like that, or having surgery when I went on this trip, you know, I couldn't bring a fan with me. And you said you can do white noise on Spotify. I was like, Oh yeah, that's right. So I got earbuds and I did that, and then the whole night, you know, was like what 10 to 12 hours of nothing but white noise. And then at the end of that year, when the rapped showed up, it's it had a picture of a box fan as one of my quote albums that I listened to or singles that I listened to, and I was like, you have gotta be kidding me. And to be fair, I I think at that stage I was not on Spotify a whole lot, but to not be on Spotify a whole lot and then have that show up, that should tell you something. Yeah, but I was so mad. I'm like, you've gotta be kidding me. So then fast forward, yes, I think my Spotify rap showed a lot of sleep music and melodic, calming melodies, all that stuff. That a melodic and melody is synonymous, I know. It didn't make any sense to say that. But just to give you an idea, yeah. But yeah, and it kept showing up, and I couldn't get rid of it. Definitely need noise. I need noise, but a lull, like a complete like a humming, static hum, yes. Okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:37:05

Okay, so full disclosure, I sleep with Seinfeld on. Um, I need Seinfeld, I need that that bass line of the that theme song. Dialogue. But yeah. Um, but I think that if I didn't, if I couldn't listen to Seinfeld, which I don't know an instance where I couldn't, because it's always on my phone, um, then I could probably take white noise or like a thunderstorm or something.

SPEAKER_00 1:37:36

Like I don't need rain, but thunder I like. That's weird because I would rather rain and no thunder if I were to choose. It's because it's so rain is consistent. Thunder would kind of like you know startle you. Yeah, yeah. I don't like it.

SPEAKER_02 1:37:54

Um what I will point out is that silence is so loud. Yes, in an uncomforting way. Yeah, I agree. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:38:08

Silence can be intense.

SPEAKER_02 1:38:10

And I and what's also weird is that the location of the silence is different. So specifically, and I think I've mentioned this to her before, Michelle's house is very loud when there when there is no noise.

SPEAKER_00 1:38:27

Do you mean like um different things happening, like the AC kicking on?

SPEAKER_02 1:38:32

No.

SPEAKER_00 1:38:33

It's so loud when there is no noise. Well, okay, give me an example.

SPEAKER_02 1:38:39

I I can't. I can't.

SPEAKER_00 1:38:41

So you're saying it's super quiet. It's so no house settling.

SPEAKER_02 1:38:46

Okay, so no settling. It is intensely quiet. Okay. That I can hear it so loudly. Okay. Yeah. It's it's really weird. And I don't think I experience that anywhere else. That that level of quiet.

SPEAKER_00 1:39:06

Wow. So I wonder, I wonder why there. Yeah, it it is it's wild for sure. Houses tend to settle, they have, you know, their own little house sounds, you know.

SPEAKER_02 1:39:19

No, yeah, no. It is not, it's not like there's little sounds that happen. Um, because it's so quiet, you can hear these little sounds. That's not what I mean. What I mean is that the quiet is so loud that there is that you can literally feel it in your ears.

unknown 1:39:39

Hmm.

SPEAKER_02 1:39:41

Very weird. It is weird, and I don't know how to also explain it, but hopefully somebody understands what I'm talking about.

SPEAKER_00 1:39:47

Yeah, that could be the case. I see this is why I like talking about stuff like this, is because you know, we're just going by our own um mental kind of recollection of how things are, but are we normal? Maybe, maybe not. So I like that. So somebody, hopefully, you know, somebody it could prompt somebody to comment on that. Yeah, that's very interesting. Maybe like a scientist. Yeah. Do you think scientists listen to us? Wouldn't that be crazy? Yeah. Please tell us. Are you a scientist? Call today.

SPEAKER_02 1:40:24

Yeah. All right. What's your last question?

SPEAKER_00 1:40:28

Okay. So my last question is probably the most important question of all the questions we have presented. Oh my God. And you must make a choice. You ready? I don't know, man. Okay. Let's hear it. Pam or Michelle. Okay, everybody. What's it gonna be? I'm just kidding. Michelle, you do not know. I know.

unknown 1:41:00

Just kidding.

SPEAKER_00 1:41:01

No, I saw I thought of that and I said, okay, well, I'll save that for the last.

SPEAKER_02 1:41:08

But oh man. Could you imagine now being like the good son? That's that would be a good one. You know what I mean? Yeah. That movie. I it's on my list. It looks so dark. It's ridiculous. That would be a tough one for sure. Because I know I love you both in like completely different ways. Exactly. All right. So now we're on to our QA. Yes. Um, today's cue is brought to us by Kate in Vancouver, Washington, also known as the Coove. Hey, Kate. Um, some people call it the Couve. That's hilarious. I know. Everything has such a nickname nowadays. I know. Um, so her question is, which is a great question.

SPEAKER_00 1:42:10

It is, actually.

SPEAKER_02 1:42:11

What is your biggest pet peeve with the other sister?

SPEAKER_00 1:42:17

That is so it's such a great question, but it I'm like kind of mad at Kate. It's like it's a potster for sure. I have never been so angry with an individual I've never met. Um my god.

SPEAKER_02 1:42:37

By the way, I don't know if I told you this, but she's adopted herself as my surrogate sister.

SPEAKER_00 1:42:43

Oh, so there's even more of a reason right there. Yeah. Okay. We'll be at the flagpole at three o'clock.

SPEAKER_02 1:42:54

I know. God. I'd love to see you guys fight. Okay. So do you want to go first? I'll I'll let you know that I have a few in in Pure Kim fashion. I have more than one answer. And then I have a bonus answer.

SPEAKER_00 1:43:14

Oh, jeez.

SPEAKER_02 1:43:15

I know. Okay. Okay. So go ahead.

SPEAKER_00 1:43:18

You kind of you've already known this, but I'm this is like one of my biggest annoyances about you, but I've already expressed this and you don't care. So okay. So and please.

SPEAKER_01 1:43:42

Oh wait, I guess I know what this is gonna be.

SPEAKER_00 1:43:44

Let me know if this is anything, if this if she has done this to you. So Kim is notorious for this. Is a kind of a two-part thing. She doesn't leave me on red, but she doesn't okay, okay. Let me let me back up. So Instagram has rolled out this stupid feature where I have to see what people have liked, right? And then I'm coming across it and I'm like, Kim knows that I would appreciate this content. Why did she not send this to me? And then I have to think of all the people that probably got to see this before me, and she knows, like, okay, so what if it's a a really cool fact about, you know, maybe Animaniacs is coming back, or maybe it's a fact about um a gorilla. Okay coming out. Or okay, go. You know, what if it's some kind of creative Rube Goldberg machine that has never been done in the history of Rube Goldberg machines? Does Kim send it to me, guys? No, she doesn't. She saves it for herself.

SPEAKER_02 1:45:14

Do you know that is not at all what I thought you were gonna say? It's in the same realm.

SPEAKER_00 1:45:20

But and then, okay, but the the second part to that, I guess we'll say, since you have your little few questions or few few answers to this. Yeah. Is she okay? So we have a sister chat within the Instagram app, okay? And she will like, okay, so we have this thing where if she's seen it before, this is very controversial for people that share memes with each other. I know that some people are like, oh, I've seen that. And then some people think it's rude to say, oh, I've seen that. I completely get that. So if I send you a reel that you've already seen, but I didn't maybe see that you liked it, you'll heart it. Okay. But my frustration isn't necessarily that you're harding it because it is a compromise that we came up with. What frustrates me is that you don't, it's like, okay, but what is your opinion on it? You don't engage. I see your stupid little avatar sitting under what you what I said about it, or what you know, what what the post is. And I'm like, okay, but what are your thoughts on it? You're the only one really you can tell me.

SPEAKER_02 1:46:48

You're the only one of the three of us that does reply with thoughts. Me and Michelle, like Yeah, you guys do.

SPEAKER_00 1:46:55

No, yes. Don't let me go in and get some screenshots.

SPEAKER_02 1:47:01

Don't get interested.

SPEAKER_00 1:47:04

So some of you have commented on something and then it brings it to the bottom or whatever. But a lot of the times, if it's something you have seen, you won't give me your take on it. Now, let me just say this. Yes, if I'm presenting this as a pet peeve, this is super petty. It's a petty peeve. Petty peeve. I get that. I know it's a pet peeve. Is that why they call it that? I wonder. Oh, okay. I'm gonna Google it. Go on. Okay. So, but I don't want to see after this like a super fake change in you. Like, gimme Kim or don't. But I'm just saying that this is what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_02 1:47:54

Well, you know that like I'm not gonna start like I'll make an effort, but I'm not gonna be fake. I'm not gonna be like, oh my god, this is the most amazing thing I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing it with me. Like, I'm not gonna do that. Um, so I do make an effort, sometimes more than others, and I will make an effort after the time of this recording to give you my opinion of what I have already seen. Um without it being forced. And yeah, see, there we go.

SPEAKER_00 1:48:31

And I do apologize. Oh you're forgiven. Be forgiven. You'll be you'll be more forgiven when I when I see uh a change.

SPEAKER_02 1:48:42

I'll believe it when I see it. Yeah. Um so real quick, pet peeve, it says it combines pet, which means a cherished or meaning cherished or personal, as in a pet project, with peeve, which means annoyance, like it's derived from peevish. So, and it started in the early 1900s, um, to describe specific, often irrational irritations. I didn't know that pet meant something different, yeah, nurtured like a pet. And then it's because of a pet, yes. It's something that you care about and take care of, you know, blah, blah, blah. Wow. Okay. And then it's a peeve because you hate it. All right. So uh where to begin. Wow.

unknown 1:49:39

I'm just kidding.

SPEAKER_02 1:49:42

Also, you I have told you about all of these. These all drive me crazy, and you know about them, but they were worth mentioning. So I think I know one and I have a defense for it. Okay, I'm sure you do. All right. So the first one I wrote down. Is asking me or Michelle something that is easily Googleable. Um like recipes or how to do something on your phone or blah blah blah.

SPEAKER_00 1:50:12

Wait, so you're including Michelle in this? So, Michelle, if you're listening, is this like some kind of alliance that was built?

SPEAKER_02 1:50:19

No, there's no there's no alliance. But I do know that you have reached out to her for recipes quite often. And it's like, dude, it's not like she created this recipe, just Google it.

SPEAKER_00 1:50:36

That's all. Okay, I'm gonna save this. Go ahead. So that's what I want to know. Do you want me to respond after each one? Or do you want me to state my case at the end?

SPEAKER_02 1:50:47

You can respond with two sentences. Wow.

SPEAKER_00 1:50:52

In leave on Kim number two when she makes you only use two sentences. Um okay. Now, if anybody that works with me that I have presented this question to is listening, just let the record show I was right, that I knew she was gonna bring this up. Uh-huh. And I'm gonna tell you the same thing I told them. Okay. That it may not be ideal to reach out to Kim or Michelle rather than Google, but I like when you guys give me your feedback. I like when you guys explain it to me because you know me and you know you know the kind of answer I want to hear. And to be honest, I like the engagement about said subject. So if I ask Michelle about a recipe, a lot of the times she knows that sometimes I might be like, Well, what if I don't have XYZ? And she'll say, Well, you can just substitute blah blah blah, and it goes from there. I see. So yeah, and I know that she doesn't make up all her recipes, I know that she gets them from somewhere, but sometimes if she doesn't send it, I want her to.

SPEAKER_02 1:52:14

Yeah, whatever. What I will say is that I have never denied you my help. So if ever you have asked me something that is easily Googleable, it's I have never said, Pam, please just Google it. Google it, Pam. I always will help you. I sometimes I'll Google it for you. I'll send you screenshots, I'll read to you what I'm reading off Google. Like, yeah, so it's fine. I like feeling useful, but it's still like, come on, Pam. Like sometimes, like just well, and I know I will give you credit for that. You have. Okay, thanks. It used to be really bad. But yes, you have gotten better. And but I, you know, I had to think of some pet peeves. So that's where we are. Okay. Okay. The next one is, which is something that was actually mentioned earlier, is how embarrassed you get in public. Oh I know what example you're gonna have. Uh, is it with the thing I wanted you to take a picture of, or that you wanted to take a picture of because you thought it was really cool and you made me take a picture of it. So Pam and I were walking down the sidewalk on this busy street. It was like a boulevard, and she saw something really cool. I think it was like one of those electrical boxes. What was it?

SPEAKER_00 1:53:36

Maybe. Yeah, or maybe it was a tree.

SPEAKER_02 1:53:38

Because you know, well, there is that tree, but I think I took a picture of it that day because I had the better camera. Oh, that's true, yes. But when we were walking on the sidewalk on a busy street, there was like a really cool painted electrical box or something.

SPEAKER_00 1:53:53

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:53:54

And because the because the street was so busy, you didn't want to be seen taking a picture of it. Which is like this society of where we are is everyone taking pictures of everything, especially themselves. But you just wanted to take a picture, you wanted a picture of this thing, and I had to do it. Even though you were standing right next to me, you didn't want to be the one seen by these drivers that see you for a nanosecond taking a picture of something in public. That is frustrating to myself. Yes. I know, I know, and yeah, and you do that often, and that's why I was really surprised that you wanted to go geocaching with me and Michelle that day. Because like you got you started digging, and I was like, okay, Pam, all right. I got really impressed.

SPEAKER_00 1:54:43

But which by the way, that has to be a future episode. We have gotta talk about geocaching.

SPEAKER_02 1:54:47

It's on our list, yeah. Yeah, okay, okay, so there's that.

SPEAKER_00 1:54:52

That is fair, and my my only defense with that is I just don't like to draw a touch to myself. Right. But I am getting better.

SPEAKER_02 1:54:59

But also you need to realize that nobody really cares about you. I know. So and I think that's what's hardest for you to get over is realizing that, and I think the hardest part about that is because if you were driving and you saw somebody taking a picture, you would be so interested in what they're taking a picture of. And so because of that, you think everyone else thinks the same way you do.

SPEAKER_00 1:55:21

Yep. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 1:55:23

That's so biblical too.

SPEAKER_00 1:55:24

Like judge not, let lest he be judged.

SPEAKER_02 1:55:27

Right. Yeah. Um, and then my last one. This is so annoying. My last pet peeve, which again, you do already know about this because I bring it up every single time we're on the phone together. Is when Oh, wait.

SPEAKER_00 1:55:50

No, I'm not gonna guess, but I think I know.

SPEAKER_02 1:55:52

It's when you tell me to hold on when I'm when I'm already holding. Pam, I don't know what it is, but that drives me crazy. I don't know why that drives you so crazy. I don't know, Pam, but for those listening, Pam will be on the phone with me and she'll tell me to hold on because either her son has a question or she's looking for something or she's doing something. She's always doing something, and she'll tell me to hold on. So I am sitting there holding. I'm not continuing talking. I'm not like bugging her, like, oh my God, are you done yet? Like, there's none of that. I'm literally just holding. While I am holding, Pam will say, Okay, hold on. And she will keep telling me to hold on, like while I'm holding. And I know that that's silly and it should not be, it's a petty peeve. And I I don't know, man, it drives me nuts.

SPEAKER_00 1:56:50

It's the equivalent of now. This is another annoyance that I'm sure I that you have about me. It's the equivalent of when I say, um, if I respond to a text with hold on, or what is it that I say? I say, hold on, let me check. And you're literally don't have to tell me. You don't have to check me that you're checking.

SPEAKER_02 1:57:15

Right. Just go check them answering my question.

SPEAKER_00 1:57:18

Yeah. And then my response last time you got on to me about that was I want to let you know that currently I'm taking care of it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:57:29

I'm like, I think I'm too overly considerate. You're too communicative. Yeah. Um would agree. Yeah. Um, those are all I got for pet peeves. There might be more, but those are the ones that like resonated. Um, but I do have a bonus pet peeve, which is a pet peeve from my childhood. Oh. Defenseless, I'm sure I'm I will be. Oh. Um, when you used to pull my toes. Oh my gosh, I forgot about that. Yeah, I did too, until like something happened a few days ago, in fact. And I like I was watching something. I can't remember what happened, but I was like, oh my god, yes, I hated that so much. So yeah, so Pam used to pull my toes to crack them. Like pull them to to like pop them. To pop them, yeah. Yeah. And like I do that now, but I don't pull them. Like I do crack my toes in the same way I crack my knuckles where I push them down. But I never pull my knuckles. And you thought it was hilarious because I hated it so much. You were such a bully.

SPEAKER_00 1:58:46

And yes, I don't remember you hating it. I mean, were you you weren't crying? You were probably just like, oh my god, no.

SPEAKER_02 1:58:53

Yes, I was not crying, but I I 100% made it obvious that I did not like what you were doing, and you thought it was funny that I didn't like it. And you would do it intentionally to pick on me. Well, if you would have cried, I would have taken it seriously.

SPEAKER_01 1:59:09

That's not true either.

SPEAKER_02 1:59:10

You would have thought I was annoying. I know. Anyway, um, it's definitely something that has traumatized me. I hate it to this day. I don't want any of my knuckles, finger or toe, pulled. And um, yeah, so that's my bonus pet peeve. My kid pet peeve.

SPEAKER_00 1:59:31

You're gonna have to put some shoes on when I come and visit. That's I think it, and this is where our outro music would start.

SPEAKER_02 1:59:41

Yeah. Yeah, that's it. So hold on. That was perfect. All right, weirdos. That's it for this episode of Sisterical. Don't forget to hydrate and text us when you get home. Catch you next time for more shenanigans. Love you, Pam.

SPEAKER_00 2:00:06

Love you, Kim.

SPEAKER_02 2:00:07

Bye.

SPEAKER_03 2:00:18

Oh, sure, of course you're entitled. Who doesn't want this, that, and the other?
